Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Schaltungsanordnung für mehrpolige Fehlerstromschutzschalter gemäß dem ersten Teil des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for multi-pole residual current circuit breakers according to the first part of claim 1.
Eine bekannte Schaltungsanordnung dieser Art arbeitet mit zwei Gleichrichterstrecken für jeden Netzleiter, so daß insgesamt bei drei Außenleitern - früher als Phasenleiter bezeichnet - und einem Neutralleiter - früher als Mittelpunktleiter bezeichnet - acht Gleichrichterstrecken benötigt werden (DE-B2-2653 453). Die Gleichrichterstrecken sind in Brückenschaltung angeordnet und an ihren Verbindungspunkten läßt sich die Hilfsspannung abgreifen.A known circuit arrangement of this type works with two rectifier sections for each network conductor, so that a total of three outer conductors - formerly referred to as phase conductors - and one neutral conductor - formerly referred to as center conductors - require eight rectifier sections (DE-B2-2653 453). The rectifier sections are arranged in a bridge circuit and the auxiliary voltage can be tapped at their connection points.
Es ist ferner eine Erdleckdetektionsvorrichtung bekannt (DE-A1-28 25 881), wonach Ausführungsbeispielen zufolge in eine Brückenanordnung von Gleichrichterstrecken zusätzlich eine Hilfserde eingekoppelt wird. Diese Hilfserde übernimmt bei einem Nulleiterbruch, wenn über die Last bei einphasigem Betrieb am zweiten Betriebspol ein von Null verschiedenes Potential ansteht, die Funktion des zweiten Betriebspols. Bei mehrphasiger Ausbildung der bekannten Vorrichtung wird eine Schaltung erreicht, die der zuvor geschilderten im wesentlichen entspricht, bei der aber eine zusätzliche Hilfserde, also unabhängig von einem Netz, eingekoppelt wird.An earth leak detection device is also known (DE-A1-28 25 881), according to which, according to exemplary embodiments, an auxiliary earth is additionally coupled into a bridge arrangement of rectifier paths. This auxiliary earth takes over the function of the second operating pole in the event of a neutral conductor break, if a potential other than zero is present across the load in single-phase operation at the second operating pole. With a multi-phase design of the known device, a circuit is achieved which essentially corresponds to that described above, but in which an additional auxiliary earth is coupled in, that is to say independently of a network.
Die bekannten mehrpoligen Schaltungsanordnungen liefern einem zu versorgenden Gerät die Hilfsspannung solange zwei von vier Leitern intakt sind. Die Gleichrichterstrecken sind jedoch, wirtschaftlich gesehen, verhältnismäßig aufwendige Bauteile.The known multi-pole circuit arrangements supply the auxiliary voltage to a device to be supplied as long as two out of four conductors are intact. From an economic point of view, however, the rectifier sections are relatively complex components.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schaltungsanordnung zur sicheren Versorgung von Fehlerstromschutzschaltern, die mit einer Hilfsspannung arbeiten, zu entwickeln, die mit weniger als acht Gleichrichterstrecken auskommt.The invention has for its object to develop a circuit arrangement for the safe supply of residual current circuit breakers that work with an auxiliary voltage, which manages with fewer than eight rectifier paths.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kumzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Mit einer solchen Schaltungsanordnung wird eine Hilfsspannung für einen Fehlerstromschutzschalter auch dann noch sichergestellt, wenn lediglich oder mindestens zwei von vier Leitern noch an Netzspannung liegen.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of claim 1. With such a circuit arrangement, an auxiliary voltage for a residual current circuit breaker is still ensured even if only or at least two out of four conductors are still connected to the mains voltage.
Der Strombedarf in der Hilfsversorgung eines elektronisch arbeitenden Fehlerstromschutzschalters liegt in der Regel unterhalb von 2 mA und die Spannung ist von Netzspannungswerten herunterzutransformieren. Hierzu können zwischen den Gleichrichterstrecken und netzseitigen Anschlußstellen bei den Außenleitern Widerstände eingeschaltet sein. Eine Ausgestaltung der Schaltungsanordnung kann dabei zur Steuerung des Potentials zwischen dem Neutralleiter und den Verbindungspunkten Kondensatoren enthalten.The current requirement in the auxiliary supply of an electronically operating residual current circuit breaker is usually below 2 mA and the voltage has to be transformed down from the mains voltage values. For this purpose, resistors can be switched on between the rectifier sections and network-side connection points in the outer conductors. An embodiment of the circuit arrangement can contain capacitors for controlling the potential between the neutral conductor and the connection points.
Nach einer anderen Ausgestaltung wird zwischen den Verbindungspunkten ein Kondensator eingeschaltet und zwischen einem Verbindungspunkt und dem zugeordneten Ausgang der Schaltungsanordnung zumindest ein Widerstand. Der Kondensator kann mit zwei Widerständen insbesondere eine T-Schaltung bilden (Fig. 3).According to another embodiment, a capacitor is switched on between the connection points and at least one resistor between a connection point and the associated output of the circuit arrangement. The capacitor can in particular form a T circuit with two resistors (FIG. 3).

Dieses Schaltschloß 2 ist in einem Fehlerstromschutzschalter untergebracht vorzustellen, durch den die zu überwachenden Leiter hindurchgeführt sind und der für seinen Betrieb eine Hilfsspannung benötigt. Die Hilfsspannung wird an den Verbindungspunkten 3 einer Brückenschaltung 4 abgegeben. Die Hilfsspannung arbeitet auf einen im Fehlerstromschutzschalter angeordnet vorzustellenden Verbraucher 5.The circuit arrangement according to FIG. 1 is connected to four conductors L1, L2, L3 and N to be monitored. It supplies the auxiliary energy for the operation of a residual current circuit breaker. Switch contacts 1 are arranged in the conductors to be monitored, on which a

Mit den Verbindungspunkten 3 der Brückenschaltung 4 ist jeweils eine einzelne Gleichrichterstrecke 8 bzw. 9 der übrigen Leiter im Ausführungsbeispiel Leiter L3 and Neutralleiter N, verbunden. An den Verbindungspunkten 3 der Brückenschaltung 4 ist die Hilfsspannung abgreifbar. Zwischen den Verbindungspunkten können übliche Glättungsmittel, im Ausführungsbeispiel ein Kondensator 10 und ein oberhalb einer Schwellspannung arbeitendes Ventil 11, z. B. eine Zenerdiode, angeordnet sein.Two rectifier sections 6 and two rectifier sections 7 to two conductors, in the exemplary embodiment the conductors L1 and L2, are arranged in
Auf der Netzseite der Schaltungsanordnung können Vorwiderstände angeordnet werden, um die Spannung für den Verbraucher 5 herunterzusetzen. Solche Vorwiderstände 12 sind in Figur 2 dargestellt. Außerdem sind zwischen dem Neutralleiter N und den Verbindungspunkten 3 Kondensatoren 13 zur Steuerung des Potentials der Ausgänge angeordnet, von denen einer oder auch beide entfallen können.Series resistors can be arranged on the network side of the circuit arrangement in order to reduce the voltage for the consumer 5.
In der Schaltungsanordnung nach Figur 3 ist zwischen den Verbindungspunkten 3 ein Kondensator 14 eingeschaltet, und zwischen einem Verbindungspunkt und dem zugeordneten Ausgang 33 der Schaltungsanordnung sind zwei Widerstände 15 angeordnet, um die Spannung am Ausgang 33 herabzusetzen. Einer der Widerstände 1 sowie der Kondensator 14 können für die prinzipielle Arbeitsweise entfallen.In the circuit arrangement according to FIG. 3, a
